he would move to new hampshire and run for senate. a very good friend of brown ran last time. now going to iowa. good for him in a way anytime you can have a conversation about what a party is looking for that is good. we have had this conversation many times. is there anything in the 2008 or 2012 republican conversation that tells you the key to get the nomination next time is to run to the left or the middle? he is not exactly the kind of guy if you look at what john mccain had to do, what mitt romney had to do. hard to see scott brown being the 2016 nominee. that is a long time. >> don't make predictions. i do want to ask you, a lot of the political talk over the weekend is over egypt and what the u.s. should do about egypt.
3:34 am
much of the talk surrounding the aid, $1.5 billion every year. does that prove a tough spot the president is in now. there are no good option left in diminishing leverage. >> they get along so well whether democrats, republicans. it is the chief executive, the executive branch who has to make these decisions. the public evidence before him is that this regime is in the middle of the bloody crack down. why wouldn't you pull the aid. the administration would tell you it is a lot more complicated than that. it is the fact that this military government has almost eliminated any radical attacks on israel. it is access to the suez canal. i think this is a key week to ten days to see if they can somehow find a way to bring calm. the administration is hoping and hoping they can get relative calm on the streets because yes

3:41 am
>> reporte >> reporter: was it a kiss or a protest. two female russian athletes sharing a lengthy embrace on the podium over the weekend raising concerns they could be prosecuting for promoting what russia calls nontraditional sexual relations. neither athlete has yet issued a statement on the matter. >> thank you so much. and they are starting to mismantle a mountain top get away that is making up the penthouse suite of a high rise in beijing. >> reporter: i want to show you the great lengths that the media here is covering the story. they have taken a drone and flown it above this enormous structure in beijing. these amazing pictures of this

prospects in the state of georgia. we know players are getting stronger and faster especially in high school. is football becoming too dangerous. >> it was a preseason football game at a high school that went terribly wrong. 16-year-old star player was killed during the scrimmage and his death marks the fourth high school death sewer far just this summer raising questions of what is being done to protect teens from potentially catastrophic injuries. he was a promising high school athlete named the top defensive back in june. he had already received a scholarership offer to play college football for the university of kentucky. >> he was one of those kids that definitely had the potential to go to play division 1 ball. >> reporter: his life was cut short after making what appeared to be a routine tackle like this one on friday night. one of his coaches watched in

horror from the sidelines. >> the ball was dislodged and his body just immediately went limp. >> reporter: he died from injuries to his back and neck. he is the fourth teen to lose his life while playing high school football just this month renewing questions about the safety of the sport epelshly for teens. in california cook died on the field during practice. in north carolina and utah two teens died after collapsing following morning practices. >> the game can be practiced so many ways effectively without full contact during the week. >> reporter: terry o'neil says high school players are using techniques that are harder on their bodies than those used by nfl players. >> these players are playing foyer or five full contact games a week. and nobody can survive that over
3:45 am
the long term. the history is that it is rare that one catastrophic blow would cause death. >> and the 2012 study says 67% of the most severe injuries come as a result of tackling. since 1977, 283 high school and college players have ended up with permanent spinal damage. coaches and teammates say the season must go on and that is how he would have wanted it. certainly raises a lot of questions and certainly sparks debate. >> it is very tough because more people i talk to say it is great. everyone should be able to play the sport they want to. i'm not going to let my kid play. if you would have told a kid when i was growing up they couldn't play they would have anyway. >> the game has changed. >> i grew up playing the game. i love it.
3:46 am
we'll have to see how much he loves it. when i was growing up you used to tackle by wrapping with your arms. guys love to say they don't play the right way. the guys are so big and fast that i would have to dive into you because i couldn't tackle you. you were going to run me over. as the collisions have become more violent of course you are going to see statistically that all the injuries come when you tackle. guys talked about that whether going to harder helmets have helped or hurt the game. a lot of guys lead with their head. in the nfl it is no longer legal. at the end of the day when you run into each other as fast as you can you are going to have problems and it is tough to mitigate the risks. >> perhaps mitigate it at least during practices or scrimmages. >> the coaches say if you don't prepare you get more hurt. it is a tough one. it is. coming up on "new day,"

4:03 am
i want to talk about how much we have seen already. this is since june. we are about 15 inches above average. since june 20 to 30 inches of rain has fallen in the area from just last weekend. a lot of places saw as much as ten inches of rain in the last three days. the flooding threat is high. we are talking about one to three inches. 20 to 30 inches of rain i am not complaining anymore. that is unbelievable. >> the ground is completely saturated. let's head overseas to egypt, the scene of more deadly violence. 25 soldiers reportedly killed in an ambush. at least 900 people have died since the government crack down last week. it has both the u.s. and europe reevaluating the billions of dollars it gives egypt every year. cnn is live in cairo.

4:06 am
signals that it wants to wipe out the brotherhood as a political movement. the most alarming aspect is the staggering loss of life. the most of the people being killed unarmed protesters. >> and clearly not over. thank you for the reporting this morning. tears we heard about from the blade runner as he heard murder charges against him today. olympic sprinter oscar pistorius charged with premeditated murder in the shooting death of his girlfriend. today would have been reeva steenkamp's 30th birthday. let's go to robin cur. >> reporter: good morning. and the judge handed oscar pistorius that indictment just a few hours ago here. pistorius says this is the first time he really had the charges in front of him and those charges the most severe the
4:07 am
state can bring against him, that of planned and premeditated murder for the death of his girlfriend, reeva steenkamp on valentine's day. also i think it is important to note ichb this indictment that the state has listed 107 witnesses that they want to bring to the stand. so this is going to be a very long trial if you include all of the witnesses we are going to see. >> you point out how many witnesses because often the more the prosecutor called the more it is an indication they are trying to put together a mindset. what are you hearing about the ability to prove not that he killed his girlfriend but that there was a plan? it was premeditated? >> reporter: you know, i think that is the key. what is really going to define this case is that there is going to be a lot of circumstantial evidence trying to portray oscar pistorius as violent, as trigger
4:08 am
happy. his character, of course, is going to assist. what is also interesting is that his legal team is going to say he is a double amputee. many people in south africa will understand there is a paranoia and fear of a burglar coming into your house. there will be the jostle as to whether or not there was a spur of the moment rage against reeva steenkamp. can a spur of the moment fight be justified as premeditated and planned? the judge is going to have to decide that. >> it is going to make for a very interesting trial. thank you very much. back here at home the hits keep coming for alex rodriguez on and off the field. last night a-rod got hit by a pitch nearly setting off a bench clearing brawl. then he delivered a key hit himself, a home run that helped
4:09 am
the bronx bombers win a very big day all of that after taking a hit from his own boss. andy, what went down in boston last night? >> a-rod definitely keeps it interesting. the latest development is he is accusing the yankees of mismanaging his medical care. general manager fired back at a-rod this weekend calling him a liar. also said a-rod created an environment unlike anything he has seen. a-rod continues to play and he is actually playing pretty well. >> alex rodriguez stepped up to the plate last night and took another direct hit igniting an explosive exchange between yanks' manager. the red sox fans not surprisingly loved it. as the animosity surrounding the slugger gets more heated a-rod has a new lawyer and a new line of attack accusing yankees.
4:10 am
of with holding medical information on him leading him to play injured when he shouldn't have. the yankees deny it with team president telling him to put up or shutup if he has evidence. at stake around $100 million left on his contract. over the weekend another hit, a 60 minutes news report claiming members of the inner circle named names during the investigation into a-rod. he says those claims are not true. in the meantime, four innings later in last night's game a-rod crushed his 649th career homer setting off an angrier scene in the fenway stands. last night was the second time a-rod has been hit in a game this season. multiple players say they are not happy a-rod is playing right now so this may continue throughout the season, a-rod getting hit by pitches. >> not good.
4:11 am
not what the game is about. a lot of news developing this hour. more than 1,000 fire personnel in around the clock battle to keep an idaho fire from spreading. the beaver creek fire has burned through more than 100,000 acres and forced the evacuation of 2,300 homes. it is just at eight percent containment. a tragic deadly end to a bachelor party. police say 29-year-old dirk anderson died when he fell from a hotel's 11th floor window. local stations report the window screen gave way. there was alcohol at the party but police say the fall appears to be an accident. a jet blue flight forced to make an emergency landing after the crew reported smelling smoke in the cabin. diverted to kyra phillifil phil

4:14 am
days after she left rehab. oprah asked if she thought lindsay was ready. she believes lindsay thinks she is ready but admits this is a story we have heard from her before. we saw a lindsay lohan poised, thoughtful and candid. >> are you an addict? >> yeah. >> what is it you're addicted to? what is your drug of choice? >> alcohol. yeah. because and that in the past was a gate way to other things for me. i never abused. i tried cocaine. >> that is when you were arrest td the first time? >> it is the troubled actress's first interview after three months of treatment, the 27-year-old's sixth trip to rehab.

4:16 am
>> prove myself in a way that i did in the past and lost. i have to regain trust in people in my career that have their doubts. >> oprah and lindsay lohan are working on an eight part documentary series in which lindsay will chronicle her recovery. she has been post in her first rehab role in hbo's "east bound and down". lindsay said she would think about taking oprah's advice and has cancelled the trip. >> she is not going. >> she needs to prove herself. i think people give a lot of leeway to celebrities in terms of rehabilitating themselves and reputations. that is why you see this. >> she has been in rehab six times. some say rehab is a measure where you have to keep going.
4:17 am
it is a continuous battle. sometimes it is a preventive measure to go back. >> so they are doing this documentary about her time in rehab. >> it is like a reality show. it is a series but it is a reality show. >> and what effect that will have. >> i get that. i have to tell you, i think this is the right way for lindsay lohan to do this. i give kudos to oprah because i think this is the way to show how difficult it is to beat the drugs even when you have everything in the world going for you. maybe this particular person with her understanding of attention maybe it will help her. >> oprah said i have an addiction, too. my addiction is to food. it is a different type of addiction but i am an addict, as well. going to take a break here on "new day." what is going on with bears? why are they getting so mean? in michigan a bear mauled a 12 year old.

bears and trying to figure out what is the best thing to do to defend yourself. if you run into a grisly bear the best thing to do is play dead but if you run into a black bear the best thing to do is fight back. >> good to know. thank you. coming up next on "new day," 16 years after princess diana's death scotland yard opening up a new inquiry. and there is only one place this summer where there are no blurred lines, copy right laws. that's not true. robin thicke is taking no chances suing the family of marvin gay. why would he be suing them? what are you doing back there? ow! that hurt! no, no, no, no. you can't go to school like this, c'mon. don't do it!

4:32 am
scotland yard is saying this is the first time since the exhaustive inquest into the death of princess diana concluded in 2008 that they are assessing new information which has the british press and social media buzzing with speculation. the high speed paparazzi chase through a tunnel in paris with a deadly end. scotland yard put out a statement saying it is scoping new information, assessing its relevance and credibility. according to the british newspaper the claim surfaced in a seven page letter written by the estranged in laws of an unidentified special forces sniper. they allege their former son-in-law posted that the
4:33 am
british s.a.s. was behind the deaths. >> people don't want to believe that someone as loved as princess diana could die in a road accident. it just isn't enough. they want more. >> reporter: scotland yard has made it clear. for the moment the new claims will not reopen the exhaustive investigation which concluded that princess diana and dodi fayed were killed by the gross negligence of their driver and that the paparazzi chasing them that night. >> there will always be people coming up with conspiracy theories and the best thing they can do is get on with their lives in a normal way. >> reporter: the anniversary of princess diana's death is days away. for better or for worse this information raises new questions as to what happened that tragic night in august that so many
4:34 am
people finally put it to rest. >> joining me now from london is katie nickel. it is great to see you. thanks for joining me this morning. as erin laid out in that piece there have been many a conspiracy theory. how is this being seen on the grounds in great britain? are people taking this one more seriously? >> i don't think people are taking it hugely seriously. this is not the first time a conspiracy theory reared its head. all have independently concluded that that night was a tragic accident. they were tragic deaths but there was no conspiracy theory. the head of the protection office was one of the few people to come out since this story broke on sunday and dismissed it as another conspiracy theory.
4:35 am
i suppose the fact that there is an eight-page letter frankly extraordinary and quite bizarre allegations being made certainly a subject of discussion. but i think people are saying again, are we really reading this all over again. you have to look at the timing of this. it really is days away before the 16th anniversary of princess diana's death. was it because of the timing? one does wonder? >> that is an interesting question mpt it does lead to my other question. we are on the 16th anniversary of princess diana's death. we see these conspiracy theories coming up, people care so much it seems about it that they seem to keep searching. do you think that is why we keep seeing conspiracy theory after conspiracy theory about this? >> i think there are unanswered questions about that whole night
4:36 am
even though we had three independent inquiries. it is not satisfying for people to just say it was a terrible accident. there might be more to it. and it does prove if nothing else that 16 years on diana is still an irresistible news story. she is still selling papers 16 years after her death. >> i don't think we should hear anything from the royal palace about the latest conspiracy theory. how does yet another story coming out like this and another headline and another slew of papers they are selling papers on her name. how does that effect the family? >> i don't think you will hear comment because the palace has declined to comment. they have said before that it is hurtful for them every time something else is strewn up, every time someone else makes an allegation. i can imagine for the two boys
4:37 am
it must be difficult. i think they want their mother's memory left in peace. >> especially in a time when there is so much happy news surrounding the royal palace. we'll talk to you soon. thank you. very different major royal story for you this morning. less than 30 minutes we hear from prince william himself in a brand new interview. he is speaking to our max foster for the first time since the birth of the royal baby. coming up on "new day" a new study saying drinking too much coffee can take years off your life. it feels like another story says the exact opposite. what are we to believe? elizabeth cohen will be here to break it down for you. drinking too much coffee will kill you except when it does. this song sound familiar, you hear something in the background

robin thicke and his producers are going to court filing a lawsuit against marvin gaye's family and the copyright of his work. at issue, complaints about similarities in the compositions of thicke's "blurred lines" and "have to give it up." the suit claims the songs feel or sound the same. "blurred lines" was to revoke an era or reminiscent of a sound but that's not copyright infringement or is it? >> to sound exactly like the songs, you usually get away with it. >> reporter: the gaye defendants are claiming ownership of an entire genre as opposed to a specific work and a second

5:03 am
animated and i would like to say it was up to me, but this was the moment. less than two weeks after george was born and he was caught up in that whole world. he basically was talking about this moment when they came out of the hospital and the cameras and i wanted to get his reaction as a new dad to that. >> i think more shock and dauntingness was the feeling i felt. but it was, the thing is i think i was on such a high and so was catherine, really, we were willing to show him off as any new parent would. you are happy to show off your kid that he's the best looking and the best everything. >> the new royal heir in the united kingdom. >> you were comfortable there? >> i felt, again, it's not somewhere i enjoy being but i know the position i'm in that's
5:04 am
what is required of me to do and i think it's -- you know, one of the things it's nice that people want to see george. so, i'm just glad he wasn't screaming his head off. that moment you came out with the car seat, we had some warning you might be doing that. followers around the planet will be for you doing it so easy. believe me, it wasn't my first time. there was speculation. i had to practice. i was terrified it was going to fall off or it wasn't going to close. >> your decision to drive off. having my family in the car, but that was something you were clearly determined to do.
5:05 am
>> as independent as i want to be and catherine and harry we've all grown up differently to other generations and i very much feel, if i can do it myself, i want to do it myself. there are times you can't do it yourself and the system takes over to do things differently. but i think driving your son and your wife away from a hospital was really important to me and i -- >> you didn't stop. >> it was automatic, so that's all right. the interpretation of the imagery we saw there was that this was a modern monarchy and a new way, was that reading too much into it or was it you and your wife doing it your own way? >> i'm doing it the way i know.
5:06 am
but, no, i'm quite, i'm reasonably head strong in what i believe for and i have fantastic around me that give me great support and advice. >> the prince says baby george is already quite a character. >> well, yeah. he's a little bit of a rascal. reminds me of my brother or me when we were younger. i'm not sure. he's doing very well. >> did you do the first? >> i wasn't allowed to get away with it. i had every midwife staring at me. he's a little fighter. he wiggles around quite a lot and doesn't want to get in his seat that much, which is a problem. >> he's up at night. >> catherine is doing a fantastic job. >> how is she? >> doing very well. catherine and george are my priorities.
5:07 am
as a lot of people know we have a dog and dogs take a little time to adapt. he's been around. he's been slobbering around the house a little bit. he's perfectly happy. >> how long before you go back to work? >> as fathers know go back to work, get some sleep. >> one of prince william's great passions is savoring endangering species in africa. he wants his son to experience the same africa as he saw as a boy and a young man to spark in his son a passion for preserving the rarest wild animals, as much as his father did with him. >> father whispering in your ear as a sweet, young boy. do the same with prince george. a cause you care so deeply about. >> absolutely. at this point whisper sweet nothings in his ear. >> he says the possibility of his son carrying on the royal
5:08 am
family's legacy in africa isn't his immediate concern. >> at the moment, the only legacy i want to pass on to him is sleep more. >> like any new mother or father, parenthood has surprised and amazed prince william. >> i think the last few weeks for me have been just a very different, emotional experience. something i never thought i would feel myself. and i find, again, a lot of things differently now. >> like a lot of fathers would say the same thing. what an amazing conversation. >> one of the things, you should give yourself credit, max. you opened him up to the new person that he is. the moment you become a parent. you have an ease in talking about your kids and your responsibility that you never talk about yourself. you don't care about yourself, but you care about them. it was interesting, family, becomes so much more significant
5:09 am
when you have a kid. what it is meaning to him about his mother, the legacy so large and everything he learned from her. what do you think of that in terms of the context of where his head is? >> what's interesting. he's hands on. he's getting up at night and kate is getting up at night. he did the car seat, he drove off. he is tired, he is emotional. he is grappling with what it meant to be a father. this is something that newborn new fathers experience. he wouldn't do that as a normal. to drive, get up at night, look after the baby. he's doing it himself. a new father, an ordinary father and he's a prince. that's why we have the real prince william in this interview. >> seems like you do get, as chris said, you do open him up. he seems just like one of us how you feel when you watch it. at the same time the whole world is watching how they're going to
5:10 am
raise this child. they are settled into a lot of new things themselves. are they settled into kensi ingn palace? >> we went past their garden. they are adjusting. he is going back to work. when he said, can't wait to get back to work. something that most fathers probably feel, but won't admit. >> should never say. >> and this is part of a much broader conversation we had about african conservation and we've been trying to get this interview for a couple years. you'll see that on september 15th, the big special on cnn. but talks there about diana and the work that he was doing there is a legacy to her. i think, you know, such a shame that we have this news over the weekend about all these conspiracy theories because you see here william really being himself and he's moved on for more of that. so sad for him to hear these sort of stories. >> you can only imagine this is a time when thee thinks most
5:11 am
about his mom. >> when you look at that baby, the first thing you want to do you look at the woman who gave it to you and then you look right to your parents. that's a hole he's going to have to have. >> interesting that kate's mother, carol, they've been living there and she must have been very hands on. so, she is really filling that grandmother role and i think he gave a lot to us during that interview and it was a lot for him to give and a lot more to come in september. really, really interesting. >> i heard from friends after they had their first and especially the men how profoundly they're affected by holding that baby for the first time. i know you both feel that. you talked about that a little bit and you had a chance to talk to him before. >> he was blown away by seeing the baby for the first time. they had this period in the hospital for four hours before they announced it. it was very important to have their family to bond. it's the way he says, of course, it's his wife and the baby and
5:12 am
the dog, but the way he says it. very tight unit. he brings harry up all the time, as well. that's how they cope. an unusual role. but i spoke to my wife about that sort of feeling you get as a father. and i do think, i don't know if i'm generalizing here. but as a father you first get blown away by that connection where the mother has had that connection built over time. he was really in that zone, i think. >> this is a man who does not speak to the media very often. only things he cares very much about. he is talking about two of those things. his child and the charities he cares so much about. >> i hope you told him this is the easy part. >> i didn't say why on earth don't you have a nanny? i would have killed for a nanny. i mean, they have that option available as a fall back, which many people don't. >> everyone, you can see the special you're working very hard on september 15th at 10:00.
5:13 am
thank you so much. great work. we want to thank our international viewers for joining us this morning. don't miss max's special premiering on cnn september 15th. we'll turn back to the news here at home. the rain and dangerous flooding will just not let up in the southeast. the region is bracing for more heavy downpours and flash floods in area, remember, already soaked. all of that severe weather is also kicking up the surf, a new set of risks. indra petersons is tracking it all. >> unbelievable summer. the south having received 20 to 30 inches of rain since just june. this weekend was so exception. five inches of rain at places that really can't handle any more of this rain. heavy rain and rain flooded the southeast. check out members of one church in gulfport saw after their sunday service. waist deep weather covering their car doors. a foot of rain fell in less than
5:14 am
an hour. business owners along highway 49 found water rushing into their stores. >> fire trucks out there, it has to be pretty bad. >> it didn't get that bad during katrina. >> these motorists were caught off guard by the rising water. the fire department rushed in to help dozens of stalled cars. from the gulf coast to the carolin carolinas. in miami beach, an elderly couple was killed while swimming on sunday. >> in cardiac arrest when fire rescue arrived. we worked them all the way to the hospital in mt. sinai, where they were pronounced dead. >> came to the aid of 50 swimmers caught in the rough surf. >> let's take a look at the water vapor loop from the weekend. this is just from friday. all this tropical moisture literally feeding into the south. almost like a perfect line that does not stop and all that feeling storm after storm. with that, this is how much rain
5:15 am
they're talking about. this is a set up. stationary front and more rain expected in the forecast and even five inches expected as we go through the week. the above average amount since june. about 15 inches or so above average. what they saw just this weekend, these are pretty impressive numbers here. ten inches in panama city and pensacola near seven inches of rain and that's just in the last few days. really have no room for this water. there you go, of course, the flash flood watches and warnings currently in effect and this story is not ending any time soon. we'll continue to see this pattern throughout the week. >> we'll track it. thank you, indra. firefighters in idaho are stretched to the limit this morning battling nine wildfires and only 9% containment is reported on the beaver creek fire. scorched more than 100,000 acres so far. cnn's dan simon is live in haley, idaho, with the latest. good morning, dan. >> hey, kate, good morning.
5:16 am
quite an operation here. we are at the base camp. 1,200 firefighters battling this blaze and they're taking it very seriously. the potential things could get worse. 100,000 acres charred. as always, the weather plays such a critical factor and here the wind in particular. they hope they get a break. in terms of the wind today, they want to do their best to protect the areas where many celebrities have several homes. at this point, kate, the damage has been pretty minimal at this point and you're dealing with out buildings that have been burned and crews taking this fire very seriously. we'll send it back to you and chris. >> thanks so much, dan. coming up on "new day" this is a tough story to tell but an important one. preseason football game. this young man, a 16-year-old star player makes a tackle and it kills him. raising some questions and we'll take you through them. also coming up on "new day" jodi arias hits the books and

5:20 am
welcome back to "new day" new concerns about the safety of high school football after a 16-year-old dies during a practice game this weekend. many are calling for change. cnn pamela brown joins us with that story. >> preseason football game at a high school that went terribly wrong. 16-year-old star player deantre termin died. what is being done to protect teams from potentially
5:21 am
catastrophic injuries. deantre t deantreturman named top defensive tackleback and received a scholarship to play for the university of kentucky. >> he was a great kid to coach and great kid to be around. definitely one of the kids to play division i ball. >> reporter: his life was cut short after making a routine tackle during a preseason football game on friday night. one of his coaches watched in horror from the sidelines. >> the ball dislodged and his body just immediately went limp. >> reporter: turman died from injuries to his back and neck. he's the fourth teen to lose his life while playing high school football just this month. questions of the safety of the sport, especially for teens. in california mitchell cook died collapsing on the field after
5:22 am
practice. he reportedly had a heart condition not believed to be life threatening. in north carolina and utah, two teens died after collapsing following morning practices. >> the game can be practiced so many ways effectively without full contact during the week. >> reporter: terry o'neil, an advocate for safer football practices say high school players are using techniques that are harder on their bodies than those used by nfl players. >> these players are playing four or five full-speed, full-contact games a week and nobody can survive that over the long term. the history is it's rare that one catastrophic blow would cause death. >> reporter: turman's coaches and teammates say the season must go on and that's how deantre would have wanted it. 67% of the most severe injuries come as a direct result of tackling. since 1977, 283 high school and college players have ended up
5:23 am
with permanent spinal damage. you have to think, age plays a big role in this. they're still developing. their bodies are still developing and when you couple that with these harsh techniques during practice, it's not surprising. >> that young man looks so grown up. that's the thing, these are young men, really. they're strong. >> are our kids bigger these days? >> they are. i'm 6'2", 215 pounds. when i was in high school i was playing same position as this young man did, may he rest in piece, i was 175 pounds, now they're lifting weights, nutrition. human beings are kind of getting bigger. >> better at training. >> in sports earlier. but the conflict is for parents and just for all of us who love the game is it is inherently violent. we're going to run into each other at full speed. you'll never mitigate that. it is, how do we try to make it so that we're only violent when
5:24 am
we have to be within the game. you heard the man in the piece making a solid point, don't do it so much at practice. the pros are moving back off contact. here's the difference, pros know the game so much better than the younger guys and the counterargument is if you don't do it in practice, you won't do it right in the game and increase chances of getting hurt. >> these are guys try to get a scholarship to play in college. >> you can't tell them to lay off. >> they see those injuries in professional sports, do we not, chris? >> see it all the time. it's a violent sport. it's a violent sport and it's just the nature of it. these questions come up and it's important to keep talking about it because through talking about it, maybe you'll find improvements. >> thanks, pamela. coming up next on "new day" convicted killer jodi arias has new hobbies. launching her own book club. jane velez-mitchell is joining us with her new book "all about arias." also, prince william is a doting royal dad.

of jodi arias. jane velez-mitchell is author of a brand-new book "exposed brand-new life of jodi arias." did you watch prince william talking about being a father? prince william in conversation with cnn's max foster speaking for the first time about what it's like being a new dad. we'll hear more of it. first, let's get the news from michaela. >> look at the news developing this hour. stalled front will bring more rain from the gulf up through the carolinas and more rain in the forecast and that means more flash flooding for some already hard hit areas. gulfport, mississippi, slammed with more than a foot of rain leaving a church parking lot flooded out following sunday services. olympic sprinter oscar pistorius charged with preita premeditated death. he was indicted on what would

are planning a rally at city hall and cnn will be there. those are your headlines at this hour, chris? >> thank you very much. jodi arias trial fascinated the country and it's not over yet. as we approach a new hearing next week, mepy questions remain. a new book by jane vel velez-mitchell offers insight into what you did not see during the trial. the book hits shelves, when? tomorrow. jane joins us right now. welcome to "new day," jane. >> here's a copy of the book. >> wasn't going to do the interview otherwise, but this is nice, thank you. signed, right? >> absolutely. >> not to friend, it has my name in there, too? >> yeah, i want your feedback. >> the book is done for everybody else, yet you were all in this trial and what surprised you in gathering the information about the unknown here?
5:32 am
>> here's the thing, chris. i'm watching her take the stand for 18 days and, in my opinion, lie through her teeth. the prosecution was able to shatter some of the lies, but not all of them. i decided to set the record straight and expose her, expose the truth because travis is not here to speak for himself. so, for example, she painted herself as this submissive women who endured sex because travis wanted it. i found out the exact opposite. the good friend, the best friend of travis told me that travis described her and gave a specific example and examples that are too graphic to mention on television. but she was the sexual aggressor. she was the one who took a practicing mormon who was sexually naive who may have only had sex with one other woman his entire life, maybe two, and turned him into something she later portrayed as a deviant. she was the puppet master and that's what i think a lot of people didn't get.
5:33 am
they think he's still somehow to blame, but he's not. >> you give the analysis and brand-new reporting in this book. >> brand-new reporting. this is the first time i ever said this. jodi arias stalked another boyfriend years earlier. this is brand-new information. it did not come up at trial. and she did it in almost the exact same way that she terrorized travis alexander. she became jealous, she conducted espionage, went into his private communications and when he moved to another state, she crossed state lines and followed him and even though they were broken up and moved right next to him and this is exactly what she did to travis alexander. there's a pattern here and nobody really knows this. >> why not? how did they miss it? >> as you know, to bring into the trial. >> there's a balancing test. >> a lot of people do not want to get involved because they're afraid of jodi arias because she is behind bars.
5:34 am
>> fears that this speculation becomes fearful. but, okay, so, the big question is, you unpack two here, really. who is she to make sense of the second big question which is, why? just because you're a little bit of a sexual deviant, if that's what she is. murder? what do we think in the book about why this happened? >> that's the challenging part of this. how does a well-spoken women create a savidge murder where she slit his throat ear to ear, six inches across and three and a half inches deep and stabbed him 29 times and shot him in the face and the short answer is, she was upset because he was taking another women to cancun. a series of horrific life choices put her in a financial situation. she was desperate to get rescued and she said, travis is going to rescue me. when he didn't become her knight in shining armor she then turned to revenge. we have information about

blackmail. i make a compelling case she was blackmailing him using the sex phone tape that the whole world heard. a lot of shocking stuff that didn't come out at trial. >> who did we see on stand? somebody who compartmentalized this or master manipulator. against the idea of being a cold blooded killer. what's your take? >> if you look at the cover, here's the one we saw at trial. this is the real jodi arias like two complete different people and pathological liars will say the exact opposite of the truth. whatever they do, they put on you. that's pretty much what it was. listen to her testimony and if she testifies again in the penalty phase retrial and i think she will, assume the exact opposite. everything she said from what i found the exact opposite was true. >> and the stakes are still very high, as you well know because this new jury may find the death
5:36 am
penalty. but f n but, if not, death penalty becomes life sentence to 25 years. >> or natural life. i believe the judge has the option of deciding natural life or life with the possibility of getting out after 25 years. and i think that's why people are still concerned. >> there's digression here so the testimony will matter. there is more in the book and i don't want to push too much, but that's what you do, you keep making me too interested. people will have to pick it up and read it and great use of the cover. hey, welcome to "new day." >> i love your show. it's fantastic. >> thanks. kate? coming up next on "new day" a cnn global event. prince william and the world's most famous new dad sits down with max foster in his first interview since his son's birth to talk about the joys and challenges of fatherhood. also coming up, a 911

5:38 am
that moment you enjoy it at home. stouffer's. made with care for you or your family.
5:39 am
5:40 am
we want to welcome back our international viewers to a global cnn event. prince william one-on-one. the future king of england speaking publicly about fatherhood and finding his own way. cnn correspondent max foster is with us in new york this morning. becoming dad has clearly had a profund effect on the prince. >> i think it has. he has a sense of what it is like to be ordinary. he's hands on and doing it himself with kate and comes across in a way i haven't seen him before come across. as you imagine, quite suspicious of the media. i wanted to ask him initially what it was like walking out in front of the world's media outside the hospital.
5:41 am
>> i think more shock and dauntingness was the feeling i felt. but it was, the thing is, i think i was on such a high anyway and so was catherine about george and we want to show him off to anyone who wants to see him. happy to show off your child and say he's the best looking or best everything. >> the new royal heir in the united kingdom. >> you were comfortable there? >> yeah. it's not somewhere i enjoy being, but i know that in the position i'm in that's what is required of me to do and i think it's one of those things. it's nice that people want to see george. so, you know, i'm just glad he wasn't screaming his head off. >> the moment you came out with the car seat. we had some warning you might be doing that.
5:42 am
fathers around the planet will be cursing you for doing it so easily. >> believe me. it wasn't my first time and there was speculation. i had to practice. i was terrified it was going to fall off or door wasn't going to close. i had practice before. >> your decision to drive off. that was the most nerve racking thing for me, having my family in the car. something you were clearly determined to do. >> i'm as independent as i want to be, same as catherine and harry. we have all grown up differently to other generations and i very much feel if i can do it myself, i want to do it myself and there are times you can't do it yourself and the system takes over or it's appropriate to do things differently.
5:43 am
but, i think driving your son and your wife away from hospital was real important to me and i don't like -- >> you didn't stop. >> it's automatic, so it's all right. the interpretation of the imagery we saw there and around the world was this was a modern monarchy and a new way of monarchy. are we reading too much into it? is it just you and your wife doing it your own way? >> if it's the right way and if it's the wrong way, trying it better. no, i'm quite, i'm reasonably head strong about what i believe in and what i go for and fantastic people around me who give me great support and advice. >> the prince says baby george is already quite a character. >> well, yeah, he's a little bit of a rascal. we'll put it that way. he either reminds me of my brother or me when we were
5:44 am
younger. i'm not sure. he is doing very well at the moment. >> did you do the first nappy? >> yeah. >> badge of honor. >> i wasn't allowed to get away with it. every midwife staring at me, you do it. he's growing quite quickly. he is a little fighter, wiggles around and he doesn't want to get in his seat that much, which is a little bit of a problem. >> you're up at night? >> i am. not as much as catherine. >> how is she, okay? >> very well. for me, catherine and now little george are my priorities. >> he's coping all right, actually. as a lot of people know dogs and bring agnewburn back they take time to adapt. he's been slogering around the house, he's perfectly happy. >> how long before going back to work? >> i'm looking forward to going back to work to get some sleep. i'm hoping the first few shifts
5:45 am
i go back, i don't have night jobs. >> one of prince william's passions is saving wildlife in africa. to spark in his son a passion for preserving the rarest wild animals, like his father did with him. >> you talk about your father whispering quietly in your ear as a young boy. are you going to do the same for prince george? a cause you care so deeply about. >> whisper sweet nothings in his ear. >> he says the possibility of his son carrying on the royal family's legacy in africa is not his immediate concern. >> the only legacy i want to pass on to him is sleep more and not change his diaper so many times. >> parenthood has surprised and amazed prince william. >> i think the last few weeks
5:46 am
for me have been just a very different emotional experience. something i never thought i would feel myself. and i find, again, it's only been a short period, but a lot of things affect me differently now. >> sure it will continue to be like that as he is continuing to learn to be a father and finding his way. you were kind of talking about it before we went into the piece and we talked about this during the birth and when we were over there. long had a tense relationship with the media and i wonder now that he has this little baby to take care of how he will approach that. this baby is born on the world stage. >> didn't ask him about that. he is going to be protective of, he's particularly protective of kate and now the baby and you can see how he's changed. grappling with all of that and very produtective and some pictures out tomorrow of the family and probably in someone in the family that took the pictures. not even a photographer outside
5:47 am
the family. >> which is unusual. >> he is going to be very, very protective. when diana died he was in his formtive years, as was harry. they grew up with photographers chasing them. that doesn't happen so much now. he has been deeply affected by photographers, in particular. that's why it's so good to see him so relaxed in front of a camera. >> diana. obviously, you know, the woman who made him who he is. so much of he and his brother's lifestyle they attribute to the mother's instruction, but when you have a baby you turn to family so immediately. they are at the mother-in-law's, she's helping out the new mom. any sense of what it means to him? >> he would have thought about it. in the hospital he would have thought about it. he is so close to his mother's memory. he talks a bit in the rest of the interview about her legacy and wanting to keep that alive through his work in africa and it sounds a bit odd, but that's where he can be himself because
5:48 am
people don't treat him as a prince. that comes out a lot more and this news about another conspiracy theory in relation to her death, especially related to the military, what she cares about deeply is really sad. particularly when he gives this to the media. he's going to think -- >> this should be the focus on this. >> getting inside to sit with him on his turf, too, inside kensington. interesting perspective. he was probably much more relaxed there. >> it was his garden we were in. this wall garden, which was not very well kept. he was a bit embarrassed of the garden and they're in a very small little cottage and we walked past it. virtually a workman's cottage in the grounds. that is going to be a magn magnificent new apartment. but it's not there yet, which is why they have been staying at
5:49 am
the middleton's. they don't have a family home. they are almost homeless. they don't have a palace. but they will have one. >> great work, though, max. this is a lot of fun. thank you so much. we want to thank our international viewers for joining us and do not miss, you'll see much, much more of what the prince has to say in cnn's special in september "prince william's passion, new father, new hope." thanks, max. take a little break here. when we come back on "new day" the good stuff. how a 911 dispatcher saved the day after somebody stole a bride's wedding dress. can you imagine? and a church choir has a message more of us need to hear. keep your business off facebook. you'll want to hear this. speaking of royalty. >> you'll want to hear this. it's a bolduan invasion on "new day." my entire family. it's going to get real. every day we're working to be an even better company - and to keep our commitments.
